Edinburgh is a great place to spend a few days and enjoy Scotland. The city hosts a beautiful, well-known castle but it also a great place to have a Scottish Whisky, watch Highland Games or play a round of Golf.

Glasgow is the most populous city in Scotland and the fourth-most populous city in the United Kingdom. Edinburg may be more famous, but there is certainly as much to do in Glasgow.

Inverness is the starting point to Loch Ness and your search for the famous "Monster".

Loch Ness is a large, deep, freshwater loch in the Scottish Highlands southwest of Inverness. Loch Ness is best known for alleged sightings of the Loch Ness Monster, also known affectionately as "Nessie".
